Honnold Foundation receives $5 million gift to launch capacity building program

Honnold Foundation receives a $5 million gift to launch a capacity building program The Honnold Foundation (HF) was founded ten years ago by professional rock climber Alex Honnold with a mission to partner with marginalized communities to expand equitable solar energy access. In the past three years, the Honnold Foundation has helped 48 Partners in over 20 different countries and territories use solar energy to build equity, increase climate resilience, and support communities’ right to self-determination. The foundation doubled its grantmaking this year to fund $2 million in solar energy projects. PSYDEH is one of HF’s partners. This organization in the Sierra Madres mountain of Hidalgo, Mexico that works with women in indigenous areas. With support from HF and in direct collaboration with women leaders, PSYDEH is bringing five solar powered technology hubs to communities that previously lacked access to most Information and Computer Technologies, including the internet.

          The world’s largest solar power plants In his second article, Philip Wolfe founder of Wiki-Solar lists the world’s largest individual solar PV power plants. The biggest solar parks and other clusters of plants will be listed in subsequent blogs. A solar PV plant is an individual generating station, designed by a single developer (or consortium) and usually with a single export connection to the grid. It may in some cases be configured on several nearby plots of land and/or constructed across multiple phases. This article looks at the largest of these individual solar power stations, highlighting those over 500 MW, and showing in brackets where it stood in the  list published in 2019 . In some places, solar plants are grouped together in solar parks or clusters, leading to even higher capacities. As described in  the introduction , these will be covered in later articles. 1.
